BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) - Residents of a Billings mobile home park are accusing the development of illegally charging late fees.

The Billings Gazette reports (https://bit.ly/2ekIUwL ) that Adam and Breea Somers have filed a class-action lawsuit against Cherry Creek Development and RJC Investment after the companies failed to disclose finance fees.

The Somers’ lawsuit seeks to prevent Cherry Creek from collecting finance charges against mobile home residents who have financed the purchase of their mobile homes through the company.

Cherry Creek has not yet issued a response to the class action.

The class-action suit comes after a ruling earlier this year in favor of another couple living in the park that found Cherry Creek’s contact violated multiple protections of the Montana Retail Installment Sales Act.
